Quantum Technologies
Quantum-related topics have quickly become an essential component of conference technical content — a recognition of its promise of stronger encryption, enhanced computational power and improved and novel sensors, as well as increased funding for quantum initiatives throughout the world.
FiO presents two dedicated topic categories that examine the latest theoretical developments and experimental implementations in areas such as quantum computing, quantum sensing for industry and fundamental physics and quantum communications.
